    Any soccer/football fans here? Ever heard of JoFBall? It's our spin on Kyleball!

  2. Haven't watched this myself but I hope that's helpful Source:
  3. Just a word of caution: We're absolutely booming on our {JoF} community forums to the point of the activity being overwhelming and a big part of that (outside of constantly recruiting new members) is that we don't officially endorse/use Discord. We believe it detracts from forum activity (and we have past data from experimental attempts to back that up). Discord is faster and more modern, people will form groups with each other and just quickly share links/questions there rather than bring up a forum and start a topic, waiting longer for replies etc. So whatever Discord plans you have, It'd be a good idea to tread carefully (assuming the aim is to increase or maintain forum activity here). We also try to share what we're up to every now and then here (especially custom created content). I made a topic earlier wanting to share some of our screenshots/videos as we have monthly picture and video contests but I don't know where to place any of that without the fear of it coming across as aggressive marketing. But I generally believe it would be of benefit to have new gameplay footage rolling in on the forums. It basically scratches an itch to get ingame when you see footage of others having fun. Other than that, tutorials, competitions and just all things JK related is gold here. We link to JKHub in many cases inside of our pinned topics. Expanding all of that would be a good way to go.
  4. Just use Q3Map2GUI as a program with Ydnars latest Q3Map2 compiler. Point your GTKRadiant install to Ydnars compiler too and only use Radiant to compile it whenever you want to fix leaks, as it will draw them visually. Q3Map2GUI: http://3d-get.de/q3map2gui/ Ydnar's latest Q3Map2 can be found there too (press Important Links). Now if the latest Ydnar Q3Map2 doesn't work for some reason (I haven't exactly remained updated) => Then just go with the probably outdated 64-bit >2GB Ram unlocked one here at JKHub: https://jkhub.org/files/file/1335-q3map2-2gb-memory-usage/
  5. Ever wanted to see WWE & Royal Rumble in Jedi Academy? We've done it!
    All credit to @Gnost for the amazing map and @PreFXDesigns + Weske for the equally sick WWE playermodels.

    + 4 more!

  6. This screen was taken by me on consoles (PS5) a few days ago. Either Binny had a jesus level resurrection or OP trolled everyone here... (Unless you maybe subscribe to the idea that someone created a fake PSN just to call himself Binnysan in console JKA (?)): I remembered reading about this topic which is why I had to come back and share this!

    {JoF}'s Easter Event on Milamber's Tarascii Mod (suicide barrels):

     

  8. Take all the time you need, hope you recover quick
  9. Our community makes a lot of streamable gifs/videos and it'd be kinda fun to make a topic and share those here too. The only caveat is that the plugin for embedding streamable does not exist on these boards. Could this be added? (iirc it should be free) https://invisioncommunity.com/files/file/9386-embed-streamable/ Example: https://streamable.com/n76qz1
  10. Don't wanna look at the spoiler as I'm still waiting for mine and it's only been shipped a week ago. But yeah, HYPE!

    Our official road map for JKA in 2021. 
    What are you guys up to?

    1. Cor

      Cor

      A lugor weekend? That is amazing!

      I want to fix three things in rend2. Sabermarks on ghoul2 models, flares, refraction rendering. Also want to finish some more features of my blender bsp importer/patcher, improve usability etc. Last but not least is writing tutorials for all of this, which is long long overdue... Busy year for me I guess 😄

    3. Futuza

      Will be trying to release v.1.3.23 of Jedi Knight Galaxies (with a bunch of quality of life fixes) before Summer, and then hopefully getting the beta of v1.4 with saber combat out before the end of the year.  Then hopefully I can start some of the more RPG features I want to focus on with those out of the way 🙂

  12. In regards to laming, you guys need to factor in the other side of it too. I personally loathe the traditional laming rule myself purely due to how damn unrealistic it is. However, there is a reason for it's existence and I would argue that expecting everyone to FFA in an FFA server is equally unrealistic. You argue that this is not good for new/outside players, but a new player getting beaten to a bloody pulp by more veteran players with no way of protecting themselves is the main reason why that laming rule became popular to begin with. JKA is a highly skill oriented game, and new players just don't stand a fucking chance. We don't have the traditional "saber down = don't kill" rule, but ours is rather: "stop attacking people who don't wish to fight". In other words, don't be a dick. You can fully play the game by just dueling, but if it is a full out FFA you want, stick to people who actually want to fight. There are people who enjoy jumping around, chatting, climbing, roleplaying, sparring a friend, holding mini events, recording something, riding npcs and doing all sorts of other weird shit. Our aim is to try and create an environment where all of this can co-exist without one dude coming in and pissing all over it. It's very easy to cyber bully new and/or sensitive players, and while everyone needs to learn the importance of a thick skin (as this is unavoidable no matter how many rules you setup) -- We as a community will help to promote a healthy environment, as much as we can. Even if it is damn annoying. I myself would give two shits about anyone killing me, but that is a luxury I can't expect of everyone as people are inherently different and unlike new players, I can actually fight back. As for bans, we practically only place them if there's a large outcry requesting it. I don't think we ever banned based on a single case, it's usual a serial rule breaker who breaks the "don't be a dick" guideline as tons of members jump into the topic and reinforce this. It's a case of trusting the majority who play daily when it comes to judging on what makes for a healthy environment on the server. If you succeed in giving players a good experience, chances are that they will come back for more. All in all, I just wanted to share our thoughts as one of the more large clans out there.
  13. JA++ isn't being actively developed anymore as far as I know and most servers still use JA+ with EternalJK as client so your chances of fixing those/any bugs are unlikely.
  14. @Coco Cala What are the chances for map source files to be released or for the levels to be playable in MP (with co-op in mind?) Looks awesome!
  15. I just checked the site and it seems they're "on deck" so they just have to ship them out now... fingers crossed on it being sometime soon.
  16. Holy shit! Looks and sounds wild We probably will settle for an entity mod later wherein all we really want to do is throw the spawns right outside the mainhall with the mosiacs, and possibly have all doors open up faster whilst also making sure the other 3 massive buildings are disabled (the version you spoke about sounded perfect). Oh and also some minor retexture job is all. The map file is just a great way to inspire future mappers and to have references incase we ever decide to do something new for our community. In short, putting sources out there for others to see and use is A+ so massive thanks there. EDIT: Oh and welcome to JoF!
  17. We have some former KAS with us at JoF, @Milamber for one. You can check us out at https://jofacademy.eu/ and we have a full server daily on the JA+ mod with over 150 active members.
  18. Any chance you're still working on that Sith Temple and got some updates to share?

  19. We'd also love this but yeah, releasing the source is quite a big ask so it's fully understandable if it isn't done.
